Extraído pela Omnilex
The dispute concerned accident insurance coverage for alleged health consequences of an accident. The court held that the required natural causal connection was not proven. The claim was therefore rejected.
Art. 6 LAA; natural causation in accident insurance: benefits presuppose that the accident is a natural cause of the health impairment. A causal link is absent where the evidence does not establish, with the required probability, that the accident triggered or materially contributed to the complained-of condition. Mere temporal proximity or an alleged sequence of events is insufficient.
